Fermentation formula

Chemical equation

C6H12O6 + 2ATP + 2ADP + 4NADH ------> 2C2H5OH + 2CO2 +4ATP + 2H2O + 4NAD+

Word equation

Glucose + Inorganic phosphate + Adenosine Tri-phosphate + Adenosine di-phosphate + (Reduced) nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide ---------> Ethanol + Carbon dioxide + Adenosine tri- phosphate + water + Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide

This equation is not comprehensive and the actual process of fermentation incorporates 12 individual enzyme controlled reactions.
